Cornish Trawler
Cornish Trawler is a bracing 3.8% pale ale: a strong malty flavour balanced by floral hops, with a peppering of liquorice and lemon and pine touches. A proper session beer, it is said to go well with fish, as you might expect, as well as cured meats and a properly hot vindaloo.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Cornish Trawler
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
